A blood sugar level of 100 mg/dL can be considered normal or slightly elevated depending on the context:

  • Fasting Blood Sugar: A fasting blood sugar level of 100 mg/dL is within the normal range (70-99 mg/dL). However, it is at the higher end of the normal range, which may indicate a risk of prediabetes if other risk factors are present.
  • Post-Meal Blood Sugar: If measured 1-2 hours after eating, a blood sugar level of 100 mg/dL is considered normal, as post-meal levels should generally be below 140 mg/dL.

It's important to consider other factors such as age, overall health, and whether you have diabetes or prediabetes. Regular monitoring and consultation with a healthcare provider are recommended for personalized advice.
